The last decade has seen a sharp increase in the number of superhero movies made by both Marvel and DC. We wondered, if marvel superheroes wore watches, what would they wear and why? We have already visited a few of DC’s characters and the timepieces that they would wear, now we are taking a look at Marvels Superheroes for those that prefer Marvel to DC. Without further ado, here are our suggestions.
Loki & U-Boat
Thor came out almost a decade ago and has since had 3 further films which have gathered mixed reviews. Loki, Thor’s brother, has also gained a lot of popularity as the films have progressed for his charming and witty personality-not to mention his good looks. Here is the trailer for Thor: The Dark World:
We had to pick a timepiece for Loki that was of a finer taste, to match his ego and style in the films, therefore we opted for one of our more expensive luxury brands- U-Boat.
This timepiece is unique in design with a combination of gold and green, Loki’s signature colours. It is a durable watch that will be able to withstand the different scenario’s Loki finds himself in on a day to day basis. It is scratch resistant as well as water resistant up to 100 metres.
Doctor Strange and Raymond Weil
Doctor Strange came out in 2016 and was another movie that had mixed reviews from the start. Of course, it is debatable whether it is the storyline or whether it was to do with the lead, Benedict Cumberbatch. He is one of those actors that is either loved or not so loved. Here is a glimpse at the trailer:
Doctor Strange has a unique and alluring style which we wanted to capture with our choice of timepiece. It is, for this reason, why we picked out Raymond Weil’s Freelancer automatic.
Raymond Weil have created yet another handsome timepiece which is not only elite in style but also in function. As Doctor Strange’s abilities are more magic than physical combat he doesn’t necessarily need a watch that is as durable as U-Boat’s mentioned previously. Just in case Doctor Strange does find himself in combat this watch is water resistant up to 100 metres as well as scratch resistant.
Deadpool & Ben Sherman
Deadpool also came out in 2016 and is still one of the most popular Marvel characters for his charming and witty disposition. It was Deadpool that changed the game of superhero movies combining action and comedy together and pulling it off well. Here is a look at the trailer:
Mega fans of Deadpool may be well aware that he does actually wear a watch throughout the film which is shown below:
However, we decided to pair him with a watch that would match his suit which is a timepiece by Ben Sherman.
This is a simple watch with a big fashion statement. It matches Deadpool’s suit perfectly with the bold colours red and black. We know that Deadpool isn’t particularly materialistic, therefore he would get this watch for a steal at only £27!
Gamora & Thomas Sabo
Who hasn’t heard of Guardians of the Galaxy these days? Both films were highly anticipated, the first being released in 2014. Here is a peek at the trailer:
As for our leading lady, we have picked Gamora and we believe that the perfect timepiece to match her sassy and strong disposition is Thomas Sabo’s Rebel at Heart watch.
This is an edgy accessory which suits Gamora’s style and personality well. It is not overly complicated in design and features a neutral colour combination of silver and black.
